Actual Model Examples for Heat Conduction Analysis¶
Analysis Model¶
For the heat conduction analysis, a spent nuclear fuel transport container is used as the actual model. For this actual model, three verification examples with different mesh resolutions are defined. The list is shown in Table 9.4.1. The model geometry is also shown in Figures 9.4.1 through 9.4.4.
